Thank you, @GovKathyHochul, for continuing to push for the release of UUP Brockport member German Machado.
I spoke with Secretary Mullin this evening about the recent ICE arrests of Dian Zhao Lin and German Machado. I want their families to know that I’m doing everything in my power to bring their loved ones home. I’m encouraged by the Secretary’s willingness to engage, and I’ll continue pushing for their swift return.

Thank you, Congressman Morelle, for speaking up in support of UUP member German Machado, a Brockport UUP member who is being detained by DHS without cause.
German Machado is a hardworking SUNY Brockport employee who came to America seeking safety. He has a valid work permit, has built a life here, and has spent nearly 10 years waiting for his asylum case to be heard. Yet Trump’s ICE agents took him into custody outside his home. This is outrageous. In Rochester, we believe in hard work, treating people fairly, and looking out for our neighbors. We don’t tear families apart or punish people for seeking a better life. German deserves due process, his family deserves answers, and I’m calling for his release. rochesterfirst.com/news/suny…

Bring German Home! UUP Albany members show their solidarity with fellow UUP member German Machado. Machado works at SUNY Brockport and was detained by ICE without cause last week at his home as he left for work. UUP has called for German's release, as has Governor Hochul.
